Chapter 37: Victory I

It had been a day since the battle preparations were carried out. During that time, we focus on watching the enemy's movements while anticipating other things. That's pretty complicated for me.

I breathed a sigh of relief, sitting my body in a chair. "First time, you guys. Can you give me your reports?"

"I've talked about the formation and the strategy you're planning with some of my colleagues. Although there are some kendal, but everything goes well. With this, the cavalry troops are ready for battle" Caesar said.

"That's right. Likewise with other groups" said Nathalie reassured.

"Your! Well, thanks for your hard work!"

"What about the rest?" I said while still looking at the map.

"Young master, let me report on my work" Louise said.

"As you said before to me to keep running the economy. So far, the big cities should not know too much about the situation in Qrystial. Well, even though we can't fool the eyes of traders who were forced to return because of a trade path that closed abruptly. That caused some traders to be disappointed. Besides, there should be nothing to worry about"

"I understand. Thanks, Louise. Keep it running like that, for the traders, I guess I should give some souvenirs for them later. Accommodation of course."

"Then let me report my work, young master" said Uncle Edward.

"Right now, the refugee situation is relatively good. They're getting no bad treatment in Ryent City. Same with needs and so on. For now, in terms of logistics and food needs, we can still meet them. For the obstacles, it may be a place to live and travel to a difficult city. These few days, we were attacked by a horde of mountain bandits. But luckily, Kai and Ryan's men can finish it."

"Well, I've sent a letter to the ruler of Ryent, Tristan. For a while, let you set up a tent outside the city, do not enter the city. That'll create an uproar. Then, Ryan and Kai, you can ask some mages for help to make the Formation. Just in case there are things you don't want."

"What about you, Alice?"

"Right now the soldiers' supplies of logistics and medicine are available. Although some we still have to wait, delivery. The rest, for supplies during the war are already handled, young master"

"good. Thanks for the hard work, Alice"

"Barto. What about the fort and the state of the soldiers now?"

"Everything is safe to control, you don't have to worry about it."

I smiled at their report, "well, thank you for all your hard work. I understand if you're tired, then rest for the night. Louise, Uncle Edward, Kai .. You can come back soon. Rest tonight."

"Well, I hope you do too, young master." They bowed respectfully before they left, disappearing.

"Okay, leader" they said simultaneously before leaving the tent.

They left, the room became quiet with only the sound of the night wind. The voices of the soldiers gathered were rarely heard.

I took a long breath, a tiring day.

...□□□...

Battle day.

"Report young master! I just received a report from the patrol squad!"

"Say"

"They found movement from the enemy from the south"

"Tell Barto, Prepare an army. They're coming"

The troops immediately gathered. They were ready with various weapons and armor on their bodies.

Raka stood upright on top of the fort, behind him, Barto, Alice and the other six representatives. They stood equally firm, a calm and courageous look radiating on their faces.

"Everything ... today, the war is about to start!"

"I hope you're all prepared for everything that's going on"

"Right now, is a fight of life and death. So, for those of you who are not ready to die, then go"

"I'm not forcing it."

The soldiers looked at each other, confused without one leaving.

The corner of Raka's mouth lifted, she smiled.

"If so, then enjoy!" His words spurred the spirit of the soldiers.

Hearing the words of their little leader, their blood boiled. Feels turbulent, merciless. The cold air they no longer felt, there was only a sense of heat and twitching all over their bodies. "Yes!" Shouted them.
